Mingyue_Lay

Mingyue Lay Buddhist Temple at Bonnyrigg is one of the largest Chinese Buddhist temples in the Southern Hemisphere.

 

As its name indicates, the Mingyue Lay Buddhist Temple is mainly run by lay

people and it is attended by Buddhists from Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and

Vietnam. Occasionally, monks or nuns are invited to conduct religious services.

The Temple's function goes beyond just religious services. Since its early days,

the Temple has performed major fund raising activities for humanitarian causes,

including floods and bush fires.
